Week of May 31
WOW!
We made it!...Well, almost, still have Science for 5th grade and a few make-up assignments. Job well done! I know that you all join me in giving Donna a HUGE round of applause for how well testing has gone thus far.
Moreover, let's celebrate our students! I am hearing story after story how students used strategy taught throughout the year, how they tried their little hearts out, and Jennifer Wallace shared how on a piece of scrap paper one of the student's wrote a note of encouragement to himself that was inspiring him to keep going.
I know that this continues to be a stressful time of the year as we await results, and we will get those to you as soon as we are allowed. Continue to provide quality instruction throughout the rest of year, and develop plans that do not call for the watching of films, series, etc. as we still need to me mindful of summer regression.
I will be out tomorrow celebrating Ansel's first birthday with my entire family, which is the only reason I would ever take a day before I holiday. I know that you all do not get that opportunity, and I take that modeling seriously, but I am sure you all will understand this time around. Please enjoy some of the more humorous cartoons related to testing that I have found over the years.
